Australian Tarantula (Phlogius hirsutus)

I’ve placed the 5 spiderlings in slightly larger plastic screw top containers. The medium was microwaved coco peat and sphagnum moss at the top. Everything was slightly moist (not too moist). The spiderlings have built webs and some have built tunnels also. They have been fed two small crickets each so far. I’ve got them on heat with thermostat at 20 degrees Celsius. I hope that’s the right temperature. They are all doing fine at the moment. I’ve had them 12 days since receiving them in the mail.
